    The Hidden Headaches of Infinity Pools

    Send us a text Infinity edge pools look incredible — they’re the kind of pools you see on Instagram or in luxury resorts. But as a pool pro, I can tell you they come with a unique set of headaches. In this episode, I’m going to share the real troubles that homeowners face with infinity edge pools — from water loss and high maintenance to expensive repairs and heating challenges. I’ll also give you some tips to help manage these issues if you already own one, and what to watch out for if you’re considering building one. Sometimes the "wow factor" isn’t worth the hidden headaches — unless you go in with your eyes open. Support the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors! HASA https://bit.ly/HASAThe Bottom Feeder.
